The US government have agreed to release Gen. Sani Abacha's loot. The repatriation of the looted sum is the outcome of the recent meeting between
the Department of Justice and the Attorney-General of the Federation,
Abubakar Malami (SAN) and the Acting Chairman of the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission( EFCC), Mr. Ibrahim Magu.
United States has agreed to repatriate to Nigeria about $480million believed to have been stolen by the late Head of State, Gen. Sani Abacha and his family.
But the terms and conditions for the repatriation of the cash and other details are being worked out.
Also, the Department of Justice in the United States now has a Kleptocracy Unit, which will assist to track looted funds and money laundered by public officials from Nigeria and other nations.
